this is a tasty recipe for the pizza hut pan pizza. Pan pizza uses large amounts of oil relative to a normal pizza recipe. The pizza dough is literally fried in its own oil. A healthier alternative is to use olive oil instead of vegetable oil.Pizza Hut Pan Pizza Recipe statsServings:see directionsDifficulty:easyPrep.Time:40 MinutesCook Time:20 MinutesIngredients:

Here's a comment from a "pizza hut employee":

I worked at pizza hut for 5 years making dough every morning.
First of all the water needs to be 105 degrees F exactly.
Second there is no seasonings or herbs mixed in the dough.
Third the dough is made fresh every morning,panned,allowed to rise,then stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 hrs, not overnight. After 5 hours it is thrown away. There is no lard used. The recipe is:

4.5 cups bread flour

1.5 cups water (105F)

2tsp active dry yeast

3tbs powdered milk

1tsp salt

1tb sugar no oil is used in the mixing process

mix in stand style mixer for 15 mins. make dough. cut into 9,16,or24oz balls for sm,med,lg.
